Ipod Nano Volume level

Hi, I have got an Ipod Nano 2nd Generation and use earphone that sit on your ears not in ears as I find them uncomfortable. The only problem with this is that I find that the volume is not very loud, I have it on the maximum, I know there is a volume limit set on all mp3 players but does anyone know if there is any way of making it louder?

At this point, the software people with iPods purchased in EU countries were using to remove the cap do not work on the 2nd gen nano. No word on when it will. So other than maxing your volume limiter and trying more expensive earphones there really isn't anything you can do right now.

Ipod Nano volume question

Hi,
I use my nano as a music source on my motorcycle connected to an Autocom intercom. I have found it to be the best think yet for non skip music.
As I normally wear ear plugs I have always had a problem getting enough volume from other sources. However, with the nano I realise that you can import from itunes with a volume level adjustable up to +100%. I have found that at this import level I only need the volume turned up to about 80% on the nano when on the bike. However, even with AAC tracks I can hear some minor sound distortion.
My question is would I benefit copying from itunes to the nano at, say +75%, and then have to use more volume on the nano or remain with +100% and use less volume on the nano?
Or another way of asking is will I get better quality from increasing the volume from an import from itunes at a lower volume or increasing the volume on the nano to max?
Hope that makes sense!
Thanks,
Mark

I encountered this problem about a week into using it. I restored my iPod to fix the problem.
Everything was fine for me for about a week, but then at the start of one run, the Nike+ voice tried to say two sentences to me at the same time. I think it was the "Walk around to activate your sensor..." and whatever instruction happens next at the same time. From this point on, all of my songs and Podcasts were less than half the original volume, but the Nike+ voice was full volume. This basically ruined the rest of my workout.
I suggest trying to reset your iPod to see if this fixes the problem, and if not, then do a restore to your iPod.
The only bad thing about doing a restore is then your iPod loses all of its workout history, so from that point on your history is only on the Nike+ web site. Too bad iTunes doesn't transfer the workout history back to the iPod...
Good luck,

My ipod nano volume limit?!

Well, my ipod nano second generation has very low volume. Even set to full under settings and normal, its not even as loud as my old mp3 player.
But my mates ipod is very loud when he turns it up, is there a reason why mine dosn't play sounds loud?
Its english;
I checked the headphones on his and there is no problem with those.

My iPod nano was bought from US and it was loud enough when needed but after the latest software update, the volume levels went down. So, I guess I got the EU package and that explains the change.

My 6th generation ipod nano volume adjusts itself and turns down volume without me touching it. This is the second ipod on which this has happened. I can't be the only one with this problem. Help!

My ipod nano 6th generation has started changing the volume while music is playing. It doesn't matter whether I am running or sitting. It will turn volume down to zero in the middle of a song. This happened on my last ipod a few months ago and I returned it and got a new one. This is my second grey one. I don't want to have to return it again, but I might.

IPod Nano - volume not working

My 3rd generation Ipod Nano's volume stopped working after a software update. I have tried the 5 Rs: Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore
1. I checked the head-phones
2. I tried resetting my iPod.
3. I removed and reinstalled itunes to my computer.
4. I finally restored my Ipod Nano to it's original settings and the volume still does not work.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Try restarting your device. If that doesn't work, take it to an Apple store. If it is less than a year old and just stopped working, they will replace it for free (be sure to back it up to iTunes first). If you dropped it, you will have to pay because Apple will not replace a device due to "Human Error." If it is more than a year old, you will either have to pay to get it fixed, or have to pay to get it replaced.

Ipod nano volume control

I have an ipod nano, and I was messing with my ipod in my pocket and somehow locked my volume control so it will only go up so loud. I've tried going under "Volume lock" in the "Settings" area, but its asking for a combination and I don't know what it is, any suggestions how to take the lock off or find out what my combination is? Thanks! You can also email me with an answer, [email protected]

Ipod nano volume limit locked

Hi
I think the kids have set a combination code on the volume limit of my iPod Nano. Can I get it off and how? If I have to do some kind of reset can I re-sync my playlists from my iTunes library? Have over 1000 songs on and would hate to have to import/purchase again.
All help gratefully received.
Thanx.

Restore your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

6th gen iPod Nano volume keeps going down on its own

It's been getting worse lately. It started happening towards the end of each of my run, but now even when I leave it on my desk, I can see the volume just move down on its own to zero. It is very unreliable and during long runs, I have to keep battling with the volume (it goes down on its own, and I have to bring it back up again). Shutting the iPod Nano off and turning it back on doesnt help.
Anyone else encounters this? What should I do? My iPod Nano is about 1 year old.

This issue is usually the result of the Nano coming into contact with moisture (likely from your workouts). Try putting the iPod into an uncooked bag of dried rice and leaving it sit for a few days. This should absorb any moisture in the iPod.
After the few days are up, give it another whirl. If the problem persists, connect the Nano to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.
Otherwise, the damage may be permanent, meaning you'll need to have your iPod serviced or replaced.

6G iPod Nano Volume Spike Issue

I tried checking the thread on this matter but could not find any discussion on it. I noticed that there is a sudden spike in volume particularly when switching from one song to another. This can happen when double clicking any iPod compatible earphone (or even Apple's own) controls. It does not always occur with every track but occurs often enough about 30% of the time. Is anyone encountering any of this issue. I did not encounter this problem with my last gen iPod using the very same playlist. Thanks all in advance.

Are all of the tracks on your Nano encoded in the same format? Are there any EQ settings enabled?
Ideally, it would be nice to sync these tracks to another 7G Nano to determine if it's an issue with your particular Nano or not.

IPod (nano) volume

why can't iPods be louder? the first 50% is useless on the volume control? and many times the max is not enough. for me.

All iPods manufactured for the European market have a volume cap applied to them. It's a European directive from those nice people in Brussels who make sure we can't damage our delicate little ears.
If you have an older iPod you can use goPod to remove the cap on iPods that have this volume limitation.
However this application will not work on late model iPods such as the second gen nano or the late 2006 model 5th gen iPod.

IPod minimum volume level is too high

Hey,
The title pretty much says it all. I got a used iPod for Christmas. I'm having 2 problems: the volume range seems to be very limited, and the minimum volume is too high. (Akin to this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111969?start=0&tstart=0
Anyways, I was wondering if the Volume Adjustment feature will lower the volume of the songs on my iPod, or only on the computer.
iTunes 11.0.1
Windows 7
iPod Classic 160 Gb
Thanks!

I read that theser is a volume issue with some players in the FAQ.
I tried following the link for more information, but its broken. What did it say ?
